recipe: pumpkin cake in a jar

pumpkin_words

Yesterday we had some new friends over for dinner. I failed in the mashed potato department (aka I forgot to buy potatoes and ended up using instant flakes *gag*).

But I made the most tasty, moist little pumpkin cakes in their own glass jars. Darling and delicious.

Now, I know it’s not earth shattering to cook tasty things in tiny jars — it’s all over Pinterest. Anyway, I felt awesome.

And I ate one for breakfast today.

Making pumpkin cake in a jar is easy.

Buy little 4 oz glass jars. I have 24 of these.
Make this pumpkin bars recipe I found via The Girl Who Ate Everything.
Grease the jars and fill them up 2/3 full. I used 20 jars and had a little batter left over.
Bake at 350 for 20-22 minutes.

Now it’s your turn! Give it a try.
